Chapter 402 Amusement Park
...
After the zombie sailors carried away the two large boxes of gold and silver treasures, Captain Gel changed his expression and said with a smile.
"I'm so sorry. I've been so busy lately that I forgot to send you an invitation on such an important day to spend the holidays with you. I'm so sorry."
Otohime and Neptune wanted to say who would believe your nonsense, but when they saw Gel's dark circles and haggard face, they had to believe it a little and could only speak politely.
"Mr. Geer is busy with all kinds of things and works hard day and night. He is really hard-working!"
The two sides exchanged a few polite words before heading towards the island.
Among the guards behind Otohime and Neptune, a middle-aged fishman with orange-red skin was looking seriously at Captain Gir, who was walking at the front of the team.
The male fishman was about five meters tall, with a turban on his head, thick curly hair draped over his back, a pair of slightly protruding round fish eyes, a wide mouth, and a beard on his chin.
...
"Haha, since you guys are here today and happened to bring so many kids with you, I have to fulfill my duty as a host and reluctantly let you all attend the opening ceremony of the amusement park! Originally, I wanted to stay until tomorrow, on the first day of the new year, to open the park."
Gel said with a smile, an expression on his face that said you guys made a fortune.
"Oh? Has the amusement park been built so soon?"
The Neptunes became excited upon hearing this.
Amusement park!
That’s an amusement park!
In order to heal the childhood of a large group of orphans under his command, Captain Gill took a break from his normal work and spent a huge amount of money to build an amusement park, which has now been completed.
For other ethnic groups, this may just be an entertainment venue that is loved by children, but for the fishmen and mermaids, it is of great significance. No matter what age they are, they are all full of yearning for the amusement park, and no one can resist the temptation of the amusement park.
"Of course it's true. It's just an amusement park. My workers love to work overtime."
Gel said as a matter of course.
A large group of merman and fish-man children who heard the conversation behind them all had shining eyes and excited expressions, and started chattering in a low voice.
"Did you hear that? We're actually going to an amusement park!"
“It’s amazing!!”
"Yes, yes. Finally, we have the chance to go to the amusement park! I can go back and tell my parents about it. They have never seen an amusement park!"
...
Ever since.
Gel brought everyone to the newly completed amusement park. From a distance, the first thing that caught their eyes was the towering Ferris wheel and the winding track of the roller coaster. When they got closer, they saw the pendulum, the pirate ship, and the must-ride carousel.
Through a layer of mist, the colorful and sparkling LED lights make the entire amusement park look even more dreamy.
The news had already spread, and when they learned that the amusement park would open early today, everyone on the island and the children all ran over, ready to wait for the amusement park to open and go in to play.
Tezoro and Stella were also hurriedly arranging the dolls to serve as staff in the amusement park.
There was a shortage of manpower in a hurry, but it was not a big problem. There were Bia, Ajin, Iceberg, Enelu, Franky, Jinbe, Arlong, and almost all of Gel's crew members who personally came out to help maintain order and ensure safety.
Gel took out a piece of red silk and asked two little ghosts to stand on both sides of the gate to hold the red silk. Then he took out two pairs of scissors, one for himself and one for Yiji, then smiled.
"Come on, Princess Otohime, let's cut the ribbon together so that everyone can start playing."
"Ah? Are you so casual at such an important moment, Mr. Gill?"
Otohime was a little slow to react and said, if it was their Fishman Island that built a Dream-Fulfilling Amusement Park, they would have to choose a good day and then fast and bathe for a few days before cutting the ribbon.
Gel was stunned. Do I look like a casual person?
"Oh, I forgot you girls like a bit of ceremony."
"Laibia, Ajin, Franky, help distribute the things and give one to each person!"
Gel took out a bunch of firework tubes and shouted loudly.
"Everyone listen to me? Each of you take a firework tube, and I'll use the scissors to cut it and you'll pull the firework tube to make it explode."
"Okay young master!"
"No problem, Boss Gel!"
The little kids who received the firework tubes shouted loudly and got ready to set off the firecrackers, looking very heroic and confident.
In comparison, the hundreds of children who had never seen the world brought by Otohime and Neptune seemed much more timid and cowardly.
"Is this okay? Doesn't it feel more ceremonial? Hahaha, come on, cut it."
Ger turned his head and asked.
"Um, don't you need to say a few words, Mr. Gear?"
Otohime looked at the thousands of children around her and thought that this was a great opportunity to give a speech. She could say a few words of encouragement to this group of future flowers and promote the idea that the mermen and humans should live in harmony. Combined with the current harmonious atmosphere, they should be more likely to listen.
Otohime looked at Captain Gel expectantly, and almost said directly, "If you don't want to say it, why don't you let me say something?"
"What the hell, everyone is waiting for the fun to start. I hate it most when leaders say, "Let me say something" at this time.
Princess Otohime looked a little unnatural, feeling that she was being implied. Seeing that Gel had already picked up the big scissors and was ready to take action, she could only follow suit.
"Crack!"
"Bang bang bang bang bang bang!"
Gel cut the red silk neatly and quickly. All the children cheered and fired their fireworks into the sky. The scene was very lively.
Morgans captured the wonderful moment.
"Alright! Let's go have fun, and be safe."
Captain Gill declared.
Suddenly, the crowd poured into the amusement park like a tide.
...
In the field
No matter whether they are humans, murlocs, mermaids, or furries, without the influence of adults, the children don’t care what race they are. They just play happily together.
Princess Otohime and many fishmen and mermaid adults watched the children playing and fighting with tears in their eyes and smiles on their faces.
Isn’t what lies before them the solution they have been searching for for hundreds of years?
It turns out! There is no need to wait for the 800-year oath day, nor the time for Noah's Ark to set sail. At this moment, they can also use their own hands to fulfill the dream of the fishmen and mermen for thousands of years!
...
"Uh...it seems to be just like that."
Captain Gul calmly rode the roller coaster once, and then lost interest in it.
In this world where you can jump hundreds or thousands of meters at will, this feeling of weightlessness can no longer bring me excitement.
"As expected, we can only deceive children and mermaids."
Captain Gear shook his head and sighed.
